Being lazy, I suspect the following is the behavior but not 100% sure.
@dlmarion hoping you might know off the top of your head since you have been
working this. If not I can research it more.
* If I set a port to 100000 in the shell, it will fail and not change the
port setting.
* If I set a port to 5000-7000 in the shell, it will log an error in the
shell and set the port to 5000-64K
If this is the behavior, then it seems inconsistent to me.
